My actual destination was Halifax, but I so enjoyed staying outside of it. I was able to combine all of the social obligations of wedding season with a vacation that I really enjoyed. AJ's cottage was great and he communicates really well if something comes up. Kitchen was well stocked with whatever tools I needed (loved the coffee press) , living area and bedroom were comfortable, and the view every morning was outstanding. I would absolutely stay here again. Thanks!

Rachel2016-09-02T00:00:00Z

The location was excellent for us. Not far from Halifax or the beaches and it was very clean.

Natalie2016-07-23T00:00:00Z

A.J. was an accommodating host and his Seaside In-law suite was a great place to stay. It had everything we needed and made our stay easy. It's clean and comfortable and is surrounded by the natural beauty of the eastern shore. Close to both the beach and the city, the location is excellent. If you're visiting in the winter, bring your slippers --the tile floors are cold.

Had a great stay in Cheezetcook . The apartment was clean and everything was just like the pictures.

Steven2016-09-23T00:00:00Z

AJ made it easy to check in late at night and the accommodations were comfortable. My boyfriend and I were not looking to stay in the city and had a car, so this rural area was perfect for our needs. There were a few insects and a mouse that had taken up residence inside, but this is to be expected of a rural basement suite. The bedroom was very nice and additional laundry facilities made our five day stay very comfortable. If we're ever in the area, we would stay here again.

Aditi2016-08-07T00:00:00Z

We enjoyed our time in AJ's in law suite. The location was beautiful. The unit itself is very well equipped and very clean. AJ is great to deal with...very fast response to our questions. Would definitely recommend. Thanks, AJ!!

Nancy's place beside the lake was so quiet and perfect for us. We had a great time and we were very close to Halifax. I highly recommend it!

Sébastien2017-08-18T00:00:00Z

nancy's home was perfect! right by a beautiful lake that was lovely to swim in. super cozy home for the summer!

Carolin2017-08-25T00:00:00Z

This place was awesome! We didn't have a boat but the lake is great for swimming or other activities (we paddle boarded!) My only comment would be that if you have mobility issues it may be difficult to get up and down the incline to the entry. The place is nice, comes with everything you need. Nancy always replied instantly to any questions/concerns we had. The little neighbourhood around has everything you need as well. We had a great experience and will definitely try and stay here again!

Sam2017-08-31T00:00:00Z

This is a beautiful property with a lovely view and access to the lake. The apartment is private, clean, bright and roomy. This was my first time staying in an Airbnb and the host was prompt to respond to and address any questions I had. My one concern before arriving, was the sloping path to the entrance of the apartment as I had my elderly mother with me who uses a cane...this turned out to be not a problem as it was a gentle slope and she was able to walk up and down it many times. A great place and I would definitely stay here again.

Susan2017-06-04T00:00:00Z

The place near the lake is amazing ! The house is very clean and perfect for a family of 4 ! Its a great spot to visit Halifax. We recommand strongly Nancy's home !

Myreil2017-08-12T00:00:00Z

Big and spacious, plenty of water activities. Great place to take in nature

May2017-07-07T00:00:00Z

Amazing! This place is rather large with lots of windows to see the the ocean. The rooms are all big and clean. Its a quick 15 -20 minute drive to Dartmouth/Halifax. Lots of games for the kids and a large yard to the side with soccer nets and a zip-line. I would strongly recommend this place. Nancy even went out of her way and brought popcorn down for the kids.

This was my second stay at Denise's place and I found it impeccably clean and cosy this time, too. The beds are very comfortable and the shower and facilities work well. Denise and her family are welcoming and helpful. She even leant us some winter clothes so my son could play in the snow. Would recommend a stay at Denise's place. Paloma

Paloma2016-12-20T00:00:00Z

Denise's space was spotless, comfortable, and in a really beautiful area. Denise was easy to reach if I needed anything, which wasn't really necessary because everything I could possibly need during my stay was readily available. Overall great stay.

Patti2016-09-30T00:00:00Z

It was a clean, well sized place, with a lovely public beach a short walk away. The views from the windows were also great!

Stephen2017-08-05T00:00:00Z

The place is exactly as shown in the photo, clean and cozy. Kitchen is fully equipped so you can cook your own meals. Check in and check out was super comfortable. Denise is very responsive to any questions. Definitely a place with more value than what you pay!!

Yadvinder2017-05-23T00:00:00Z

We had a great stay at Denise's appartement. Clean, well equipped with wasching maschine and dryer, calm and views on the Lake! Beautiful nature around and only half an hour to Halifax. Denise gave us a warm welcome and we felt like home.

Anna2016-05-25T00:00:00Z

Denise's place was a perfect quick get away. Not too far from Halifax, close to a pretty lake, and groceries/food/bar only ten minutes away. Denise greeted us upon arrival and worked with our flexible schedule as we drove From Pennsylvania to Nova Scotia. She was very helpful and friendly as she gave us a tour of the space and offered us suggestions of some cool events going on in Halifax. The apartment was spacious and cute. We toured Halifax, had some good local beer, made dinner, and watched some hockey games :) it felt like a home away from home. Thanks Denise!

Ariel2017-06-04T00:00:00Z

Denise was a very welcoming and accommodating host and her space is lovely! The place was charming, clean, and such a convenient home away from home for the weekend. The neighborhood feels quiet and safe and offered beautiful access to the lake without being too far from the nearest grocery store. Our family of 4 enjoyed using the apartment as a home base while exploring Nova Scotia. Highly recommend!!

Sweet little ground floor home base for surfing & general beach wandering.
Open plan kitchen & living room with generous bath room & small bedroom.
Clean bright and open this small space is the perfect place to launch your adventures from.

We have a small selectively furnished apartment available for short term rentals.
Open plan living room & kitchen, modest bedroom and a nicely finished bathroom. South facing windows brighten the space. Small entry deck overlooks Grand Desert Pond & the ocean beyond.
It is next to our bustling little village Cafe. It is on the bus route & close to Seaforth, Three Fathom Harbour, Lawrencetown beach & only ten minutes from Porters Lake amenities (grocery store, gas stations, pub etc)
It is small & simple but a good stop over spot if you are looking for a place to relax & recharge. And a great base camp for a surf-ari.

Great little spot. Very quiet / scenic - especially in the evenings when the restaurant/bakery is closed. Pretty much everything I needed to know was explained on a laminated double sided piece of paper on walk in. There was 2 options for wifi and it wasn't too bad as long as you're not downloading/uploading large files. Recommend bringing a bike or car to get around.

Josh2017-08-25T00:00:00Z

Great location for surfing and checking out the area. It's a basic apartment but a great value if you don't plan on spending much time inside. Also not far from Dartmouth if you are interested in shopping/eating out.

Jodie2017-08-19T00:00:00Z

Lovely kitchen and living space. Yummy food at the attached bakery/cafe. Good communication. There wasn't a door on the bedroom or anywhere to put clothes away other than a small clothes hanging bar. There was a neighboring dog that did lots of barking in the night as well as many earwigs in the apartment.

Our neighbourhood is an incredibly relaxing place to be. There are only four other houses and you'll be sandwiched between the beach, the bluffs and the Trans Canada Trail.
There is incredible hiking and nature in the area. The beach, lakes, marshland with diverse ecosystems and forests are all a short walk away.
There is a great, affordable place to dine and another cafe a short drive away in Seaforth / Grand Desert. The closest shopping centre with grocery and a liquor store is only fifteen minutes away in either direction on the 207 highway.

Great place right by a beautiful beach. Very clean and fresh. Ben is very helpful and we had a great time.

Lina2017-09-01T00:00:00Z

We've spend 2 nights and we really enjoyed ! A short walk to the beach and to the atlantic trail, a short drive to others beaches, other hiking trails and commodities (grocery store, restaurant, etc.). Ben is very welcoming and answer our questions. Perfect calm spot near of the air of the water.

Marie-Joel2017-08-04T00:00:00Z

The place was well located on a quiet section of the beach. Beautifully serene area. Quiet and highly recommended. Would stay again.

Paul2016-08-16T00:00:00Z

We wish we could have stayed longer. We had the beach to ourselves. Very clean place. The bed was VERY comfortable.

The bed was super comfy :) We found everything to be just exactly as described in the listing and in the pictures. We loved having a deck and our own private entrance. Thank you Ben and Kaylee! We had a great time. One night was not enough and we look forward to coming back again someday.

My place is close to Lawrencetown Beach, rated best surfing Beach in NS. Salt Marsh Trails are lovely for hiking. You’ll love my place because of the peaceful seclusion. Large fenced in yard for small children.Private BBQ and fire pit area. Perfect for couples and families.

Two large bedrooms have lots of storage. I provide a playpen to sleep the baby. Living area has comfortable seating for a relaxation. Bathroom has new bath tub and tile.Kitchen has just been renovated. There is a high chair for the little ones. Outside has a fully fenced in yard surrounded by mature trees for complete seclusion. Only the woodland creatures can see you.

Centro Pizza is 3 minutes away but also delivers. They have much more than pizza. Try their donair eggrolls and fish and chips. It is listed with Trip Advisor because of its fabulous food. Next door to Centro Pizza is a Convenience store in case of last minute necessities. But major shopping is only 10 minutes away. Being here feels like you're nestled in the woods, miles away from the stress of daily life but is also close enough to amenities to be really convenient. Only 20 minutes to downtown Halifax. Enjoy the many seafood restaurants on the boardwalk or take a trip on the Harbour Hopper. A motorized vehicle that drives on the streets but also takes you on the water of the Halifax Harbour. Its tour guide gives a lively and interesting history of Halifax as you tour the many historic landmarks. A visit to the Public Gardens in down town Halifax is a must. A beautiful park like setting in the middle of the city. For the more fit visitor, a walk to the top of Citadel Hill will present a fantastic view of the city and harbour just as it did when it was used hundreds of years ago to defend the city from intruders . You can also drive to the top. During the summer, a free bus service will take you all over the city. Scotia Bank Center hosts many athletic and musical acts. And the Grafton Street Dinner Theatre has fantastic local acting and musical talent. Dartmouth is called the city of lakes because it has over 40 lakes. Some have beaches with lifeguards so the family can have a lovely swim, no charge. A ferry will take you from down town Dartmouth across the harbour to Halifax for a $2.50 bus fare. So much to do and see in this area of Nova Scotia

We had staying here- 4 adults had plenty of space. Interacting with trish was effortless and greeted us with fresh croissants.

Christine2017-07-04T00:00:00Z

Wonderful space and wonderful hostess. This was perfect for us! I can't say enough good things.

Torrey2017-07-16T00:00:00Z

The location is quiet, about 1/2 hour from downtown Halifax. The backyard is lovely. It's completely fenced in and includes a fire pit area. The pool is lovely and includes floating toys. The space is clean and decorated tastefully. The kitchen does not have a sink but dishes can be done in a utility sink in the laundry room. There is a hot plate, toaster oven and microwave for cooking. We mostly used the BBQ. The space includes a washer and dryer. Trish left us some lovely croissants. We had a very nice time and would return and recommend this space.

Hasib2017-05-29T00:00:00Z

Trish's place was fantastic and she was extremely hospitable. The unit had everything we needed during our stay. The pool was refreshing once the sun finally came out. The back yard is set up with a fire pit and lots of room to enjoy it. It is located a short distance from Lawrencetown beach in one direction and relatively close to shopping facilities. We truly enjoyed our stay here.

Celine2017-07-20T00:00:00Z

We loved everything about our stay in Trish's apartment. It was one of the most well equipped Airbnb's we've ever stayed in. Had everything we could possibly need. Spotlessly clean with super comfy beds and a generously sized living room. She was incredibly hospitable and gracious. Our kids had a great time in her pool. She even provided games and toys and movies for a variety of ages. Perfect family spot to stay and so close to Lawrencetown Beach.

Thanks for letting us stay with you, having a baby in your house again and for being flexible. We had a great time swimming and if we ever come back we will look you up!

My family and I had a great time at Patrick's place. Perfect location to enjoy Conrad beach, a favoulous sandy beach in could waters NS. The outside space was terrific to enjoy the quietness and beauty of the countryside.

Angel2017-08-04T00:00:00Z

Great and comfortable place nestled in woods- expect to see a rabbit or two. Spacious for 2 people and a big plus that we could have brought our dog. We had everything we needed (towels, games, tv, extra blankets, cooking utensils and of course a hot tub) Patrick and Michael were super friendly and communication was easy. Even our dog had some friends :) It's about a 25-30 drive to downtown Halifax but the main nearby town (12 min drive) has everything you need. Definitely recommend!

Cynthia2017-07-07T00:00:00Z

This is a great little spot. The unit is very spacious and has everything you need. The hot tub and hammock were a nce addition. The 5 very unique chickens wondering around added to the appeal. The place is spotless and the hosts were very accommodating! We would highly recommend if you are staying in this area.

Sandra2016-08-14T00:00:00Z

This is by far a 5 star accommodation. It was very close to be where we needed to be in Dartmouth and the hosts are very friendly and helpful. The dogs are very friendly and having chickens and a rooster running around was so relaxing not to mention the odd bunny or two. We needed a pet friendly place to stay as at the last minute we found out we had to bring our dog and this was definitely pet friendly. We hope to reserve this accommodation again even if we don't have the dog with us.

Josephine2017-06-01T00:00:00Z

Everything as advertised and MORE! Patrick is truly the Host with the Most! He goes out of his way to make your stay as enjoyable as can be. Location was even better than what the pictures portray. Largest AirBnb that we stayed in as a couple with 2 medium-sized dogs. Plenty of room to move. Very comfortable in all rooms! Lots of games to play. Ping pong table was awesome! Hot tub was a huge bonus! Outside garden huge! Dogs loved the running in the yard. Beautiful landscaping. Lovely Atlantic Trail to walk to Conrad beach and more. Beaches are quite close. Minutes from the highway. Very close to Dartmouth and Halifax Center within 10-15 minutes. If you have a crave for city life, it is close. Wonderful oasis to get away from the city. Very private. Recommend highly!

Eric2017-07-23T00:00:00Z

We really enjoyed our stay at Patrick and Michael's house. Their yard is great and we really enjoyed the hot tub! The house decor was unique and we especially loved the cat portraits. They also have a great taste in books and movies so there were lots of things to do!

Catherine2017-08-24T00:00:00Z

Patrick's place is a nice, clean, cozy and quiet spot for a perfect get-a-way. There is everything you need, and then some. The hot tub was an awesome bonus. This is a great place to relax, watch a movie, colour and enjoy the outdoors. I would definitely stay here again.

Ann and James place is close to the beach if you love surfing or wind surfing you'll enjoy the place. Their place is convenient to a quick fix of ice cream, pizza, fish and chips and sub sandwiches as it is above a mini grocery store that serves fresh meals and snacks.

Cristina2017-07-29T00:00:00Z

Ann and her boyfriend were super friendly! I wish I would have asked them about the area before, they had great suggestions! Would definitely recommend staying here if you plan on going to the beach, it's less than a 5 minute drive down the road. Even if you want to take day trips, it took me about 1:30 to drive south to lunenburg, nice drive and so much cheaper than staying in town. Plus you get to really experience the Nova Scotia!

Chanelle2017-06-19T00:00:00Z

Location, host, price and accommodation all incredible at Ann's place. I was lucky to stay an extra night and so glad it worked out. Ann is super friendly, handed me a hot coffee in the morning, had a nice conversation on the back deck, pet the doggo, and I was off on my adventures. One of the coolest hosts I've had. Multiple beautiful beaches. Perfect spot to experience NS

My place is a 10km drive to Tim Horton's coffee, groceries, restaurants and banks. It is 32 km from Halifax Stanfield (YHZ) Airport and 18 km to Halifax.
You’ll love my place because it is newly renovated and very clean and is in a quiet cul-de-sac countryside. The small cozy home has a spacious master bedroom with a very comfy bed. It has a very large wrap around balcony to take in the view. My place is good for couples, solo adventurers, business travellers, and families (with kids).

The home is very cozy. The table is presently set up for two people however remove the tablecloth and the tabletop can be opened up to seat four. You can also use the desk in main bedroom to seat two more.
Where the master bedroom is spacious, but only has a double bed. The second bedroom is small and it has the sofa bed. I tried to make it as comfy as possible by placing a memory foam mattress on it. There is no room for much else in the second bedroom.

Lower Governor St is affectionately known as Clayton Ville amongst family members as many of the neighbours are descendants of Mr. Clarence Clayton, my grandfather (deceased).

A great clean place and excellent value for money. Be sure to check out Lawrencetown beach, 20 minutes away.

We spent one night and found everything was as communicated. The check-in was quick and easy. The place was clean and in order. We very much enjoyed our stay.

On Lake Loon within the city. The apartment is garden level, bright, and open concept. It's on the lower level of my home and is self-contained with a private entrance. Only 15 minutes to downtown Halifax, and under 10 minutes to Burnside, Dartmouth Crossing shopping, and a seaside beach. You can enjoy the dock, swimming, kayaking, and watching the sunsets! Abundant flower and vegetable gardens outside your door. Good for couples, solo adventurers, business travellers, families, and pets.

The apartment has a private entrance. It's spacious with an open concept. It's on Lake Loon in Dartmouth, just off Main St (Hwy 107). There's plenty of light with loads of windows in the gathering areas. Floors are polished concrete.
The deck and entrance to the suite are located on a different side of the house from where my entrance and deck are, so even though we're in the same house, there's lots of privacy.
The apartment is large, with a dining area, a TV area with 40" flatscreen, a cocktail station, a sunroom area, a kitchen, a bathroom, a bedroom, and another area that can be used as an additional sleeping space with a futon sofa bed.
The bedroom has quality cotton bedding with a down duvet. In the closet you'll find an airbed with pump if you need extra sleeping.
The kitchen is well-appointed and has everything you'll need. Coffee, tea, S&P, etc will all be there. Basic appliances too.
There's also a fully outfitted cocktail station for you to enjoy.
The bathroom will have towels, shampoo, hair dryer, soap, and various little things you might need like band aids, extra toothbrush, Q tips, razors, etc

The street is a quiet cut-de-sac that runs along the lake. It's located just off Main St (Hwy 107), which has a grocery store, The Vines Pasta Grill restaurant, a gas station with Tim Horton's, and the locally famous Gateway Meats with crazy sale prices! All of this is within a short walk.

Donna was an excellent host; available when needed but very respectful of privacy. The location, right on a lake, was serene and quiet and the space is large. Walk in closet in large bedroom, huge main room with TV room, office space and relax space beside large windows. Truly a great find.

From the moment we walked in, we felt at home. Donna has thought of everything to make our stay comfortable. We have stayed at a lot of places, & Donna's place was the best yet. Great location. Donna's response to texts & emails was immediate. She has set the bar high for other hosts on Airbnb. Thanks' Donna for a GREAT stay in Dartmouth.

Bill2016-07-10T00:00:00Z

Donna's place was the perfect location for us to visit family in Dartmouth and enjoy the wonderful beaches of the Eastern Shore. As others have mentioned, it's far more spacious than it appears in the pictures. Donna provided lots of thoughtful extras such as beach supplies and treats upon check-in. We will definitely stay here again. Our 6-yr-old loved it, too, and there were great options for the 3 of us to sleep comfortably.

Melissa2017-08-10T00:00:00Z

Spacious and comfortable. It was much larger than we expected and had plenty of room for us and our son. Donna was a friendly, helpful and accommodating host. We loved the sitting room looking over the lake! Donna's suite felt private and quiet. It was well stocked with all of the necessities. We will definitely be booking it again.

Brianna2017-02-11T00:00:00Z

Perfect retreat. Well kitted out with all you would need to spend a happy week in the home. Very airy and spacious. Bottle of wine to welcome us. Extra bed made up for our little boy. Fantastic. Loved the lake and freedom to take the kayak out. Donna was really welcoming, but also left us to ourselves which made it really feel like ‘our’ place. We did a lot of driving out around the local area and it’s a convenient and great location. There’s lots to make a really great family holiday in Dartmouth and around Halifax. Would happily come back. Many thanks Donna for a lovely time!

Helen2017-06-01T00:00:00Z

The place matched the description and pictures. The deck over the water was fantastic and we had breakfast out there a couple of mornings. The place was nicely lit when we arrived late at night and we were greeted by a welcome basket with wine and treats. We were able to do laundry as well and had plenty of cooking/kitchen supplies to cook all our meals. Close to everything you'd want including Tim Horton's!!

Heidi2016-09-28T00:00:00Z

Great place, right on a lake, very serene and peaceful. Host did a great job of anticipating guest wants.

Jacquelyn2016-09-06T00:00:00Z

Donna is an exceptional host! She had a very thoughtful welcome basket waiting for us when we arrived and even music playing softly in the background. From the moment we walked in we were amazed, from the beautiful decor, how spacious the suite was, the quality bedding & towels and the lovely dock to relax on. She even lets you use her Kayak and life vest if you wish. Donna left us maps, tips and recommendations for dinners. She has truly thought of everything to make a guest's stay comfortable. It is in a very convenient location, only minutes to Dartmouth and the ferry to Halifax . There are several beautiful beaches nearby as well. We have been traveling across Canada and have stayed in many places along the way. I say without hesitation, Donna's place has been the best so far.

Country living in the city with all of the cities amenities right at your hand. This rental unit has 80 feet of water frontage on Lake Loon. It is conveniently located 15 minutes from downtown Halifax and 10 minutes from 2 major shopping areas. This unit has 2 bedrooms with a queen bed in each, 2 full bathrooms, a full kitchen, living room, dining room and a home theater room with 65" TV. Restaurants are only a few minutes away and hiking trails are also a short distance away.

This apartment is the lower level in our home so we would be readily available to meet your needs.

As beautiful as the photos are, they don't do this place justice. It was much larger than expected, tastefully decorated, impeccably clean with all amenities. The view was gorgeous from every window overlooking the water. Judy and Laurie were gracious hosts from the start and showed great pride in their home and community... wealth of information. You will not be disappointed!

Lynette2017-08-13T00:00:00Z

This home is a short drive away from all conveniences and is situated on a beautiful lakefront property. You could spend hours on the dock just taking in the views and enjoying the quiet. Judy was welcoming and her home provided all we needed for a comfortable stay. Extremely clean and much bigger than the pictures reflect. We would definitely stay here again when we return.

Philip2017-08-20T00:00:00Z

This is a very nice place, maybe next time I will choose this again

Peffy2017-06-17T00:00:00Z

Pictures don't do this lakeside paradise justice! The hosts provided service that was well beyond our expectations, and the kids certainly enjoyed taking the kayak provided by Laurie & Judy out on gorgeous Lake Loon. This place felt like home from our first night, and the kids did not want to leave by the end. The house was spacious, well-maintained and very clean. We can only hope we'll have the chance to return to this amazing place!

Sid2017-07-06T00:00:00Z

Judy and Laurie are amazing hosts. their home is beautiful and in the perfect location. a stones throw to Main Street yet sits on a beautiful Lake. It truly is an oasis. Judy even took us on a tour. we have made some great memories and would return in a heart beat. I can't recommend this place enought. thank you!

Natasha2017-08-02T00:00:00Z

Great find - spacious, 2 bedroom with all the comforts of home in a convenient location (assuming you have a car). I would stay here again and recommend to family and friends,

Mary2017-08-24T00:00:00Z

Very spacious and clean apartment surounded by commodities

Jean-Charles2017-08-08T00:00:00Z

Laurie and Judy have a beautiful home. Location was perfect with the lake outside your door. The house is very clean and modern with everything you could possible need available.

Here is a nice note from a vacationer from NFLD: Our stay here was nothing short of perfect. We absolutely love the property. Our daughter greatly enjoyed the pond and the ducks each morning during our stay. The house is spacious and cozy. It truly is a "home away from home". The owners are friendly and made sure our stay was superb. From bringing our daughter toys to play with, bringing extra towels, and stopping by for a chat, the owners ensured our stay was amazing. We are making it a point to return!

The host canceled this reservation 32 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Joan2017-05-31T00:00:00Z

The place is very spacious and well furnished. There is a private dock that has great sunset view over the lake V good value We used it as a base to have days trips to Grand Pre, Peggy coves, Lunenburg and Haifax Cora

Neat apartment in our house with separate entrance. It is walking distance to NSCC Akerley and only 20 mins from the airport. We are also located near the most popular surf spots and beaches (Lawrencetown, Conrad, Rainbow, Cow bay).

The place is newly renovated, we bought new bedding, towels, freshly painted! It has a separate driveway for your car and own separate entrance. We share the laundry room. The space has all the amenities.

We are not far from downtown Dartmouth where they are amazing restaurants, cafes, bars and parks! We share with you our suggested list of places to go once you book with us.

Great spot, Annie and her Husband were very helpful. The apt. Was very clean and I would recommend it to anyone going to the area.

Mark2017-02-10T00:00:00Z

Annie and Nick have a great place. Their place is very clean, and has everything you need. The hosts themselves are very hospitable, and were easy to get a hold of and communicate with. Would recommend this Airbnb to anyone!

Chris2017-08-05T00:00:00Z

Awesome hosts, great people. Very accommodating, every thing you need. Best price around ! Very clean !

Chad 2017-06-02T00:00:00Z

It was exactly same as photos, host was so friendly and welcoming and their house was really clean perfectly suitable for two people , everything was almost new we are willing to go back there again . Thanks Anne :-*

Nooshi2017-07-04T00:00:00Z

Great location, super clean and comfortable. You have everything you need. Really worth it for the price. Annie was very kind and all went perfectly. I recommend this place without any hesitation. I even went for a run in the area, beautiful park with a lake close to the house. You can choose the option to take the ferry to go to Halifax, the ride is nice and cheap (2.25$).

Cynthia2017-07-16T00:00:00Z

The suite was true to the pictures and was decorated very nice. I had everything I needed. It was quiet and I got a good night's rest. I definitely recommend staying here. Great value for the price. I loved the deep bathtub!

My place is a cosy, family friendly apartment that has plenty of space for everyone. It is close to restaurants and dining, family-friendly activities, and public transport. You’ll love my place because of the comfy beds, the fully equip kitchen, and the cosiness. My place is good for families (with kids) and large groups.

There is plenty of parking (even for RV size vehicles) and large yard. The house has only two units on a quiet family friendly street.

This newly renovated apartment is in a quiet family friendly neighbour hood. With large yard and plenty of parking. Only 20 min from downtown Halifax, 10 min to Dartmouth Crossing or Mic Mac Mall. Walking distance to Dartmouth's infamous Shubie Park that has beautiful walking/biking trails and a lovely beach area that is ideal for families.

Cindy was an absolutely amazing host. We were just passing through Halifax for one night and needed a late checkin. She communicated extremely well and even waited up for us. The accommodation was incredible - even better than the photos. This is a must book!

Jennifer2016-11-04T00:00:00Z

Quiet and close to what we needed.

Chris2017-09-06T00:00:00Z

Great place, clean, bigger than it looks. Foundo it easy to get too. Cyndi was quick to reply to messages. Easy use of key lock to get in. Would stay here again. Thank you.

Rachel2017-08-23T00:00:00Z

Great location. Cyndi was fast at responding to my emails. I would recommend this place to anyone. Nothing bad to say.

Yvonne2017-08-03T00:00:00Z

The house had everything we needed and more. I would stay again when in Halifax/Dartmouth.

May2017-09-05T00:00:00Z

Great location, very quiet and the host was very friendly and approachable. The comfort level there was amazing, and I will gladly stat there again the next time I visit.

Kellie2017-03-12T00:00:00Z

Cyndi was a great host! The space was gorgeous and was in a fairly convenient location not far off the highway. it's only a 15-20 min drive to downtown Halifax and not even a 10 min Drive to downtown Dartmouth. Cyndi was great to answer our questions and had really made the space welcoming and cozy and even had Netflix :) Perfect for a longer term stay as well with a fully functional kitchen and laundry facilities. Fantastic for larger groups as well. Will definitely be staying again!

Jessica2016-11-21T00:00:00Z

We really enjoyed our stay; it felt just like being at home. Everything was amazing and Cindy was a fantastic host! A perfect space for families staying in the area, we couldn't have asked for a better place to stay!

Cozy 2 story apartment nestled beside Shubie Park and its historic water lock system and miles of trails through forest and lakes. This pet friendly location is just 5 minutes drive to downtown Dartmouth and the ferry terminal that takes you to downtown Halifax. Mic Mac Mall, Dartmouth Crossing Shopping, and Burnside Industrial park are only minutes away as well. Downtown Halifax is approx. 15 - 20 minute drive from this location, depending on bridge traffic.

The apartment is fully furnished with mix of modern and older pieces. Full bathroom on first floor and half bath on second floor along with the 2 bedrooms. Dining room has expandable table, if needed. Living room has a large sectional couch, flat screen TV connected to an Apple TV, a bluray / DVD player, and wifi for entertainment along with a collection of DVDs on the shelves. The kitchen is fully equipped for basic cooking needs and also includes a dishwasher and microwave.

Allan was super friendly and accommodating right from the first email. He gave us clear directions to get there and an information package about the area. His home is clean and beautiful, a great space with everything we needed. We'd definitely go back and recommend to friends. Thank you Allan!!

I had a wonderful time at this cozy apartment. It was absolutely gorgeous and very spacious. Self check-in with the lockbox was very easy and the place was sparkling clean. Allan was a considerate host and answered all my questions so quickly. It was really close to great shopping at Dartmouth Crossing and Mic Mac Mall and restaurants which I loved. It is also just steps away from the beautiful and serene Shubie Park. See you again soon Allan. I would highly recommend this place to any fellow travellers!
